I need to order more sets to get some more arm connectors. One per set is not enough! Trap Jaw stays old school with his attachments, but Prime, Roboto, Cy-Chop, and Gilduk (Mix 'n' Match custom, Hurricane Hordak with the UK Prime head. "Gild" from the gold armor and "uk" from the UK head) are all kitted out with various stuff.

Definitely. Keep an eye out in the buy/sell section. I was able to pick up three extra connectors and the axe parts for cheap.

lol thanks, steal away!
I plugged it into his arm today, and while I prefer the hand, I think it looks pretty cool. And you can flip it around, but it looks more like an icepick, lol, Might look better with magma for that pose.

I actually wouldn't mind having the spiky and blaster-looking heads from a couple of their weaponeers, but I don't really want to buy the whole figure for two parts. I need some new weapons sets anyway though. Just don't want to spend the shipping on more sets, only to have them reveal new product a couple days later, like last time.

I recently picked up the red set of weapons and really had no idea so many extra pieces and connectors would.come.with it. I was floored.with the versatility and can't say enough good.things about them! To me stratos needed a weapon and I wanted hordak to have the bat sword but when I bought the pack for the wing sword.for stratos I had to order another to me it a double wing sword! Now he finally looks complete.to me! Now if only they'd bring back the sword ofbthe empyrean for the cosmic warriors!

Oh and spymonkey should make a huge curved scythe like blade! Like the one designed for the
200x scare.glow!

I'm with you guys about the next pack. The only shortcoming with the pack we have now is the overspecialization of the blades. They're too specific to work for a wide variety of characters. Having an addon pack or a new pack centered on having new types of blades would be great.

Cot the regular and smaller (close quarter, I think?) icy sets the other night. I now have a shield and a sword for Icer when he comes, and I'n debating about giving Frosta a weapon as opposed to her staff. I already stole an ice blade from a Thor movie Frost Giant for her right hand, and I'm not all that crazy about the staff, so she may be getting an armament upgrade.

And I still can't say it enough: these sets are flat out fun, like toys should be, and worth every penny.

"I will use this power for all the good that can be done, to work for peace, to encourage virtue, and above all, to preserve life in all its forms..." Superman

Cool. Frosta could definitely use those weapons, but I really hope that SMC comes out with female handles soon. I don't like stretching out the hands. I bet they could sell more sets by making them more compatible with female figures.

Thanks!

I couldn't figure it out at first, either. I know there are other pictures out there, but this is one way that I've done it:

All upcoming DX Close Combat Armory set will be coming with a selection of Silver Chrome ABS parts over the course of the next 4 drops. By the time all 4 drops are complete (around September), if you've purchased all the DX CCAs you'll have a complete set of all our ABS parts plated in Silver Chrome.
Kind of like a collect-n-connect thing.

Same for the DX painted non-Gohlem figures as well. For instance, Bloodlust Umbreus includes the 4 spikes in Silver Chrome. The next figure will have the blade & handle from the master blade and the shaft from Dominar. The August figure will have both wing blades. September all the rivets and shield dome.

We wanted to give the figures a little something extra while being able to fulfill a long standing demand for all the blades in Silver Chrome.
